Biographical note
Edited by Thomas L. Brewer, McDonough School of Business, Georgetown University, US, the late Stephen Young, formerly Emeritus Professor of International Business and Co-Director, CIER, Department of Management, University of Glasgow, UK and the late Stephen E. Guisinger, formerly Professor of International Management, University of Texas, Dallas, US<i>'Each chapter is both thoughtful and provocative in its distilled survey of recent developments and in identifying areas of future interest. As such, there are far more "nuggets" contained here than in most volumes. The book will appeal primarily to (specialist) academic economists and their prospective doctoral students but it also provides a lucid survey of issues and analysis that, in great part is accessible to the informed non-specialist.'</i>
- Robert Read, The Business Economist,
<i>'This is a useful addition to the literature on MNEs and a must for researchers and policymakers in the area of international business.'</i>
- C.S. Venkata Ratnam, Global Business Review,
The wide-ranging topics discussed include:
- the importance of the location of production
- market structure and multinational enterprise
- technology, productivity and the multinational firm
- multinational enterprises and developing countries
- international business and public policy issues
- analytic models.
The juxtaposition of ideas will provoke productive discussions among faculty and at conferences, and will stimulate useful new thought processes in any individual researcher. This book will be required reading for academics and scholars seeking guidance on the future research agenda for the economics of multinational enterprise.
